This single cask bottling was selected by Alan Mitchell of straightfromthecask.co.uk and released in summer 2013. The whisky was matured for just over five years in a fresh ex-bourbon barrel.

The Bourbon Barrel No. 248/2008 was a so-called “split cask”, i.e. the contents were used for two different bottlings. As straightfromthecask.co.uk only needed 72 bottles (i.e. 12 cases), the larger part was bottled a month later for Plumpjack Wine & Spirits from San Francisco.
